The Pullen families here--C. F. P. and Geo. L.--were summoned Friday to the
dying bedside of their grandfather, Mr. Charles Pike, late of Monroe, Wis.,
whose death occurred Saturday at the seer old age of almost 90 years. Mr.
and Mrs. L. T. Pullen (a daughter) who have been spending most of the
season in their native state--Maine, were also summoned, but did not arrive
until Sunday, when their aged sire had passed over the river. Mr. Pike
early settled in Argyle, LaFayette county, where with frugality and
economy, succeeded in acquiring considerable property, and ever bestowed
charity with a liberal christian hand. He afterwards moved to Monroe, Green
where he died. His funeral was held Monday at his late residence.
